Speedwear Concept Tempest Bibshort

The Speedwear Concept Bibshort, and serves as an addition to our new Tempest Jersey. Together they form an ideal kit for all year round training and racing.

This bibshort is specifically designed for racing and high intensity training in mild Winter and cold weather (5°C-18°C). The athletic cut of this bibtight ensures a good freedom of movement. 

It’s entirely made of Bioracer’s Tempest, an insulative, breathable fabric with a water repellency treatment. This carefully chosen fabric is warm enough to protect against cold, wind and rain but at the same time light enough to prevent the rider from overheating when temperatures get warmer. 

The trouser ends are finished with a wide elastic Powerband, to keep everything perfectly in place.

The Vapor Men pad is part of our newest generation of pads, and it’s a big step forward in terms of breathability and damping. Main research question during development was: how can we improve the damping needed to cope with the stiffness of carbon bikes without adding more material to the pad? The result: Vapor Technology.

The pad materials consist of a friction reducing, breathable top layer. 2 middle layers provide breathability and moisture transport. The main layer is where the magic happens.  We use Evapore, which is a 3D webbing with better damping qualities. When put under stress, Evapore changes into a rubberized state, so even when it’s compressed to the maximum, it still provides damping. Moreover, this material is hydrophobic, meaning it transports perspiration. The pad remains dry at all times.

The benefits are obvious.

The pad remains compact.

Lower center of gravity on the saddle, more control of your bike.

Stability on the saddle is improved.

Better power transfer, less bulk.

More support with only 30% of the material.
